There are some more plans too for open source linux drivers (not only x11).
Samsung: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?pag...item&px=OTgzNg
PowerVR: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?pag...item&px=ODk4Ng

Mostly talk so far but still. An accelerated adreno (qualcomm) or powervr open source x11 driver would make meego usable on a ton of devices.

Edit: And hopefully the intel medfield soc will have open drivers.
